how hard would it be i allready need a rear bumper. and i like the newer model rear ends. can i make it work with getting the lights the trunk lid new bumper. do the 01 outer lights fit the 06 outer. i know they're smaller but i dont know about the outer lights. and i would need the 06 rear license plate surround also. i know buying from the dealership would be expensive. i would try to look for a totaled or no to minumum rear end damge to get the parts.

there are post on this if you search for them, but you would need a new trunk lid, with the license plate surround, trunk lid lights and the bumper, then your exhaust would have to be modified. Im guessing this would all cost you well over $1000-1500 to convert.

i tried to search it couldnt find it. so the lights i wouldnt have to modify on my quarter panel? the outer lights are the same size? i know i need the trunk lid with the new lights, license plate surround, and new bumper. but how would i need to modify my exhaust? i was just going to get the magnaflows and put tips on them. my dad has a machine shop and my brother will do my tips to however i want them and then weld them on for me.

so if i get the trunk lid, rear license plate surround and the newer model bumper, and lights do they all use the same mounting points. i know what i need just dont know if they'll fit perfectly. i did the seach in another tread they said everythings the same except trunk and bumper because they made the license plate surround narrower. to sum it up can i just by the parts and install the trunk and bumper by myself and just swap out the outer lights. i'm talking as if the trunk lid has everything come with it, lights and license plate surround.
